Gen's American Idol

Generator's Sandman x PJ's Cover Girl

Just now turning 3, this talented black filly is the granddaughter of 3-time World Grand Champion Wonder Lady's Delight and sired by the Northwest's Futurity high point sire Gen's Silver Sandman. Her 2006 year resulted in her winning the Northwest's High Point Liteshod 2-year-old title. Starting out 2007 with a bang, she was awarded the blue ribbon in all 5 of her classes at the Fiesta 2 show. Chanel made her trip back to Tennessee one to remember by winning the 3-year-old Traditional (Liteshod) Plantation Futurity. It was a great thrill for Sharon to wear the roses as the last time she did was on her mare who is also the grandmother of this mare, World Grand Champion Wonder Lady's Delight which made it doubly special. She followed up this win by winning the Under Saddle division of the Western International 3-year-old Liteshod and garnered the Graduate Award which is awarded to the horse winning the most points over a 4-year period. She will be spending the winter learning the third gait the canter.

WC & RWC A Beam Come True

Pride's Beam x Sun Eden's Golda Coin

Trudy's trip to the Celebration resulted in her tying in the top ten in all of her classes including a good 6th place tie in the World Grand Championship Liteshod class ridden by her owner trainer Diane Gueck. She finished up the year as the Western International 3-gait Liteshod Grand Champion. 17-year-old Trudy will be taking the winter off with some occasional forays into the horse dancing world at which she is becoming spectacular.

She's Pretty Ritzy

He's Puttin on the Ritz x A Beam Come True

We are very excited to confirm that Ritz is in foal to the great Jose Jose making this a royal cross with the Ritz Jose line. It took all summer to get her in foal but it will certainly be worth it. This lovely mare was National High Point Model Mare in 2006 as well as being named the Northwest's Liteshod Horse of the Year. We gave her the year off in order to get her in foal.

INT. CH & SVC Lord Blackwatch

Coin's Double Pride x The Belle Witch

What a great year for Black as he continues to dominate the Western 3-gait division with a win at the Western International. Diane and Black were back in the driving division after a 3-year hiatus. He has certainly earned the winter off. Lord Blackwatch is proudly owned by Shon & Sharon DeFord.

Nite's Design

Nite Flower's Pride x Antonio's Pride

He is the big boy of the barn, the only stallion we have here at Cheveaux. He is the sire of many champion babies, including a beautiful filly born here in May called Little Debbie, out of Kristi's mare, Eb's Sabrina. After a 16-month hiatus, Desi's owner, Allan, decided to put the fat boy back in training. He was very out of shape but since he got back into the swing of things, has managed to garner several championships in the plantation division, with Nancy in the irons, as well as his amateur rider, Katie Born. Desi is available for stud duty and he is the sire of the current High Point 3-Year-Old Liteshod gelding, Nite's Total Recall, owned by Mary Harris.

Ebony's Goldust Chocolate

This lovely and naturally gaited mare was a newcomer to CTS this year. Angela has been enjoying a great year showing in both the Trail Pleasure and the Country Pleasure divisions. Chocolate has a wonderful headshake and walks so naturally she even shakes her ears. She is a 5-year-old kind of chocolaty color and about 16 hands tall. She is taking a 3-month hiatus and will be back to learn how to canter in January.

Royal Sundrop and I'm MGM

Two of the nicest geldings you could ever get to know. Royal Sundrop (Mojo) is a super 3-year-old chestnut gelding by Generator's Sundrop. He has won several model championships and under saddle the first part of the year before retiring to learn the joys of the trail this summer. Betsy says he has passed with flying colors and is just a super trail horse. He came back to CTS for the futurity and won some good ribbons in his division.

I'm MGM (Spencer) another Chestnut gelding out of Gen's Major General and the wonderful reserve world champion mare Miss Magic Money. Betsy purchased Spencer in July and then brought him back to compete in the futurity where he rewarded us with a reserve championship in the yearling colt division. We predict a great future for this fancy gelding.

Oop's Sweet Success

This fancy colored yearling filly is owned by Judy Bartoni and is definitely destined to become a show horse as she proved by winning the yearling filly class, the yearling filly futurity, and the yearling championship. She is by the great Out on Parole out of a Carbon Copy mare. Watch for this young filly as she hits the two-year-old division in 2008. Sharon Gueck DeFord showed her to her wins for Judy.

Touched By Nite

Another talented young horse by the premier sire Nite's Design and out of a Touch mare. He is showing tremendous talent and this chestnut gelding is a terrific mover. We predict that 2008 will be a big year for him. He garnered some good ribbons in the futurity considering he is just a novice and has been in training for only a short while.

Nite Night

Nite's Design x Hallelujah Night Magic

This gorgeous black mare sired by Premier sire Nite's Design is a 2-year-old and made her first show under saddle one to remember winning reserve champion two-year-old liteshod under saddle as well as winning the in-hand futurity for two year olds. This was her very first horseshow under saddle and she made us all proud. She also topped not only the Model mare class but also the Model championships so she has good looks as well as good gaits. We look forward to her coming into her own as she grows up and turns 3.
